Key Result Areas
The Key Result Area goals were
established in January of 2011 with five
areas being designated for
improvement. Employees were selected
to participate on different teams
according to their particular areas of
expertise and influence. Ideas for
implementation were developed in
January and monthly meetings are held
to track and improve outcomes through
tweaking the plans and tracking
mechanisms. The team areas are
divided into People, Finance, Growth,
Go Green and Service. Breakdown of
the team efforts for 2011 are as follows:

Employee Testimonial
“I just want to thank you for making me feel included
in the “Joslin Plan”. I am looking at things from a
new fresh perspective and that has been driven by
you. I apologize if I seem cemented in the negativity
of the past as that is NOT my mindset. I do believe
we can develop a very successful center working
together as a cohesive team. (and we do have great
team members!) I appreciate your being here and
you can count on me to assist in any way possible to
promote our future success.” Jan Reibert, RN, CDE
